Hi all, Waiting to give away my Coral catshark. Reason for giving away is to "make space" for my fast growing Eel before it gets too cramped. Do understand that this shark requires a high turnover filtration system due to it's large bioload and more than sufficient space to hide and swim. Kindly PM me the following if interested. 1) Tank size 2) Filter type 3) Photo of tank 4) Current fishes in tank Ps: not in a hurry to give away. Thank you

This is a new project I've been starting since 3 days ago. Whatever I'm going to say I hope i won't offend anybody because I've done alot research to skip the most MAJOR part of the reefing. It's call Cycling. Firstly I've made a thread before This is my Previous Tank. After A Year of studying and research, I'm showing more interest into keeping corals than keeping fish, so I decide to stop keeping angel and start to keep corals. And This is my 5x2x2 Tank. This is a big experience for me. Most of you have heard me talking about hydra in the other threads. So i decide to run a test myself and use DEAD/UNCURE rock for my tank. On the first day I've throw in water with salt mix, Putting uncured smelly rock and dose a bottle of bacteria. (RevoReef Startup) I off all the lights and allow the bacteria to grow. On the second day my ammonia become 0 and my nitrite jump high, I've put Hydra Stream 3 and on my skimmer. The next hour this happen, So I suck some of the water out and make a little bit water change, you know to remove nitrate. Okay let me skip the detail. Adding fish and coral on the 3rd day where ammonia, nitrite and no3 is 0. I know this sound unrealistic but this is a test i'm running on. I will report if there's any death in my tank in this thread. Thank you for viewing. (Is this even a member and tank spec thread)? Ok here are my equipments Hydra Stream 3 Bubble Magnus C9 Aquazonic 8 tube with ATI Light bulb Gyre xf150 Syndra 5000 Bean Animal Overflow I will try to make this tank as simple as possible so people can read up and realize reefing isn't that hard after all. There's one last thing I didnt say about this tank. I shall reveal in future. Thank you for viewing ps: Will give a full detail step on how to shorten down cycling soon
